Temperature and Rainfall Con
staat
To the Editor, Of the Appeal

To the Editors of the Appeal;
MEMPHIS, TENN, April 8.-"Temper.
ature and rainfall constants" will,
hereafter, by direction OF the Chief
Signal Officer, be furnished for publ
cation for the benefit Of the public.
They are obtained as follows: The
tenn perature constant Is the algebraic
enm of the differences daily between
the normal temperature for day,
determined from fifteen years OBJ
servation, and the current temperature
for day for a period OF one or more
DAYS.
The ar ,iniall Constant" is similar
ly obtained and used.
Their uses are founded upon the
meteorological axiom, namely, the
constaucy OF climates and, for illus-
tration, may be exemplifed as follows
I. The Temperature constant" as
above described, is on January l, 1887,
minus 1912; and is on February !,
1887, (since January /, 1887 plus
1879; and is on March l, 1887, (since
January l, 1887 plus 1922; and i.
on April /, 1887, (aince January l,
1887 plus 1889; and similarly the
"rainfsll constant" IL for the same pc
RODS respectively, minus 10Y inches
mirus 0.S9 inches; plus 1 SO inches
and plus 06 inches.
The application, therefore, is since
current temperature is 1882 above
the normal temperature, subsequent
cold weather, according to the law o
the coustancy OF climate, may be ex
pected to follow; also, since rainfall ii
Ice inches above normal rainfall, de
ficient rainfall to follow may be ex
pected, because Of the reason given
The benefit OF the above to farmers
and others is at once manifest.
